Description
Had to be done! The purpose of this theme is to make you confused about where deviantART ends and your OS begins, every element in the theme is an adaptation of a similar(ish) element on the website, for instance the modal dialogs are modelled on art submission modal dialogs and all buttons are dA buttons. Suggestions on how to make everyone more confused are very welcome!For best effect you need to add the ttf-mscorefonts package as the deviantART website (and so the theme) relies on MS fonts Verdana and Trebuchet. If you don't have these fonts installed a fallback font will be used instead and it won't look as deviantARTy (then again, neither does the website in your browser, so maybe you won't notice).
In Ubuntu/Mint:
sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
In fedora:
Get the excellent Fedora Utils ([link] ) which includes an option to install mscorefonts.
SADLY Gnome 3.6 doesn't, like the previous versions, support extension styling within a custom theme, so all your extensions are gonna look weird. Complaints can be directed at Gnome HQ
Made with awesome free software:
- Geany
- Meld
- Inkscape
- Gimp
Credits:
- satya164 (favourite internet person) for crucial troubleshooting.
- lassekongo83 whose well structured and constantly updated Zukitwo theme formed the basis of this theme.
- Faenza icons by tiheum
Changelog:
Oct-12-2012: Gnome 3.6 support
Jul-13-2012: For some reason I based the app filter on the watchers list in profiles and not on the category browse tree - it now shares style with the category tree. Also improved look of focused overview icons.
Thanks for the DD
Theme update coming later this week!

I have an Idea Why don't you make a log out button for every platform on the tool bar for easier log out's... The reason why I ask is because it doesn't work on the mobile's so well these updates

And ahh, also, kudo's on the freeware~ Don't you just love open sources? I myself am an avid fan of Linux/Ubuntu and use Inkscape/GIMP. Don't get me wrong, I've used Photoshop and PaintTool SAI in the past, but to someone on a low budget yet with good computer skills and ability to manipulate your computer to make it run whatever programs you want, Linux is the way to go. Kudos. And great job on the design, once again!~

Hehe, cheers mate. Actually I'm a bit embarrassed because I don't think the Gnome 3.6 update was very good, bit half-arsed, and this is not what it could be. I'll sort it out soon, though

No, Geany is a text editor and Meld is text comparison tool. All images were created with Inkscape (mainly) and Gimp.

Wow, this looks fantastic!
If I ever switch back to GNOME Shell, this will most likely be my first theme to use. :3

I might make one but it would be my first and therefore probably too complicated for my skill level

Coming soon - just more interested in a few other projects right now
The development build of Cinnamon has become so different from Gnome Shell now that porting a theme from GS to Cinnamon isn't a one hour job any more.
